Few months ago I decided to start making AMV's again (I did them some years ago with downloaded material.
Currently I've been buying DVD's across my lil' country in north and planning my future amv's carefully. However, I have some questions:
1: Few years ago I used Pinnacle Studio 9 for editing amv's, but I understood that now when my ambition and plans has evolved for much higher stage than before and Pinnacle has become way too primitive program. So I need a new one that can do all sorts of visual effects (well even WMM has visual effects but I think that you understand what I mean... Quite much of them! Atleat more than Pinnacle & WMM...), and I can have multiple video clips at same time, in a way that they don't overlap! I can make scenes to be in screen at same time even with WMM, just having slow change from scene A to scene B. Or with Pinnacle (though I haven't tested this) by putting same starting time for scenes, but as I said again, I don't want scenes to overlap!
For example, clip one fills downleft corner (lets decide that it is a kiss scene), and in upright corner of screen there goes other clips at same time (in which there could be clips where kissing characters A & B are together or something like that, this is just quick example).
What programs can do this kind of more evolved editing job? Oh, and I can't afford Premiere, After Effects and certainly not Final cut! (it cost 1285 euros or something... ) so I need cheaper one. You have any ideas for program?
Oh, and is there way to rip a clip from DVD and HAVE subtitles on it. They seem to be separate files. (I believe SUB files are subtitles...) And I won't use frapp because it doesn't capture voice and video quality is bad. I want to use such scene as intro for one AMV, and I hate english dub, so I want have japanese audio and english sub for this scene. How can I do this?
I'll ask other questions if I'll have some in this topic
Thanks for your help, it is appreciated
Oh, and sorry for my bad english
